Ben Stiller told the crowd at Monday’s memorial for his mother, Anne Meara, at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre how much he missed discussing current affairs with her.

“Like Donald Trump,” Stiller said to a crowd that included Larry David, Susie Essman, Chris Matthews, Cynthia Nixon and Bob Saget (who filled in for an ill Whoopi Goldberg as MC). “Ever since Trump closed the 72nd Street ramp to the West Side Highway, the word she used the most was ‘putz.’ ”

Anne’s widower, Jerry Stiller, flanked by kids Ben and Amy, said that when he balked at starting a family, Meara told him, “We have kids or I’m leaving you.”

Liam Neeson — who worked with Meara in the 1992 production of “Anna Christie” (where he fell in love with his late wife Natasha Richardson) — recalled they were both paralyzed with stage fright.

“Sex and the City” director-producer Michael Patrick King said Meara once told him, “I’m 64 years old, but my teeth are 10.”
